Both of us too fucking stubborn
Neither is willing to give just a little
Ramming our heads into nothing
Winning a war that is non-existent

Sooner or later will we work together?
Who knows?
Or will we resign to the fact that that's just how it goes?

You're seeing things in your own way
While i'm seeing things in the opposite
And we think we're so fucking different
Unwilling to buckle or deal with it

Sooner or later will we work together?
Who knows?
Or will we resign to the fact that that's just how it goes?

Sooner or later will we work together?
Who knows?
Or will we resign to the fact that that's just how it goes?

Sooner or later will we work together?
Who knows?
Or will we resign to the fact that that's just how it goes?

    Wow, first comment?

    Well, all I have to say is, this song is so very powerful, kicks off the whole Good To Go album so well, and really grabs you by the throat and forces you to listen to its message.

    But to my interpretation of the lyrics: I believe he is telling another person, perhaps a friend or someone from a different political/social/religious/etc. view, that they only fight and make a fuss over their differences, while they instead should work together rather than fighting each other. Or, if that doesn't work, just give up and accept that they're different and it's "just how it goes."

    I guess the message is rather obvious, but there you are. Great, great song!

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
